Discover the beauty and history of Yorkshire from this apartment set within a unique former textile mill. The two-bedroom, second-floor retreat at Cononley sleeps four guests and offers chic, contemporary accommodation with a luxurious finish to couples and small families. With a private balcony capturing views out over rural Yorkshire, it’s just 4 miles from Skipton and the fringes of the picturesque national park.

Let yourselves in and take the lift to your private quarters. Enter to slip off your walking boots in the hall before wandering into the capacious, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Brew a fresh pot of Yorkshire tea in the modern kitchen space then head over to the table to enjoy it as you gaze across the countryside. The well-equipped kitchen also encompasses everything you need to help you prepare tasty meals with the local produce you have sourced on your trips out. Sink back into the plush sofa to watch the Smart TV or make plans for the following day before the day draws to a close. When you are ready to turn in for the night, run yourself a hot bubble bath in the family bathroom then lay your head in either the double bedroom, which has a door to the balcony, or the super-king-size room, with an en-suite shower room and beds that can be arranged as twins on request. Have breakfast out on the balcony on fine mornings, or pop open a bottle of chilled wine and relax out here on balmy evenings.

Treat yourselves to an afternoon at Bolton Abbey, 10 miles away. Here you can wander through the beautiful grounds, explore the priory ruins, and cross the river via the famous stepping stones. Stride out across dramatic Ilkley Moor, 9 miles away, and take a steam train along the heritage Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, 8.5 miles away.

Wonderful apartment felt at home as soon as we entered the door. Beautifully clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable home from home stay. Lovely village and views from the apartment. Enjoyed discovering Skipton and the castle, and the quintessential village of Haworth. Lovely afternoon visiting Salt Mill in Saltair so much to see thereRead more and amazed at the history of the founder Titus Salt if the Salt Mill and town of Saltair.
